Sweet Life, The

About the movie

Tabloid reporter Marcello Rubini finds himself trapped in a shallow high-society existence. His dreams of writing something important are kept on hold due to the money and fame that accompany his position. Marcello romanticizes the true love but hardly even reacts upon his girlfriend overdosing pills. Instead his wealthy jet set lifestyle draws him towards brief encounters and particularly the Swedish-American star actress Sylvia, in a fruitless search for love and happiness.
As winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival as well as an Academy Award, and featuring Golden Globe winners Marcello Mastroianni and Anita Ekberg in its leads, La Dolce Vita remains one of the most critically acclaimed films of all time.
